Local Municipal Recycling Coordinators {blue recycling bin}

Every Connecticut municipality is required by state statute to designate a local recycling contact. Some towns have an employee whose primary responsibility is to manage the local recycling program; others designate a public official or town commission member to fulfill this role. You can access the list of contacts for all of Connecticut's 169 towns below. If the town has a webpage specifically for recycling, public works, or the transfer station, that link is provided. If not, then the link goes to the town's home page.

The questions that are best answered at the local level include, but are not limited to:

How do I get a new recycling bin?

What materials are collected in my local program?

Are there additional materials that are not collected curbside that I could recycle if I visited a town drop site or transfer station?

When are my recyclables collected?

When is leaf pick-up held?

When will my town be sponsoring a household hazardous waste collection day?

Why were some of the items that I set out for recycling not collected?

NOTE: The DEEP seeks to ensure that up-to-date recycling information is available to the public. If you are a public official, please take a moment to review and update the information we have about your town on this web page. Use the Recycling Coordinator Update Form (Word | PDF) to notify DEEP of any changes or clarifications .
